About
Section 1: Our Heritage and Commitment
Dio-Met Fabrications: The Sheffield Standard in Architectural Metalwork
Dio-Met Fabrications is a family-owned architectural metalwork company based in Sheffield, the Steel City. We are proud to uphold the city’s 30+ year heritage of exceptional steelwork manufacturing and craftsmanship. Our business foundation is built on long-standing commercial relationships, word-of-mouth recommendation and a reputation for quality, providing a dependable service that we, as a family, stand behind.
Section 2: The Dio-Met Advantage: Quality & Compliance
UKCA Certified Quality, Made in the UK
In the world of structural metalwork, quality and compliance are non-negotiable.
UKCA Certified: All our structural steel products are UKCA certified—a critical legal requirement for safety that many suppliers fail to meet. We guarantee every structural product is certified, designed, and manufactured for longevity and compliance.
In-House Manufacturing: Every product, from glass balustrades to walk-out balconies, is designed, fabricated, and finished in-house at our Sheffield workshop. This hands-on control ensures unmatched quality and allows for complete flexibility in tailored solutions. We only ever install using our own fitters, never subcontractors.
Competitive Pricing: Our original focus on commercial contracts gives us significant bulk purchasing power for raw materials. These cost savings are passed directly to you, ensuring you receive premium, UK-made quality at a competitive price—without the high costs often associated with imported goods.
Section 3: How We Serve You
Tailored Service: From Major Contractors to DIY Kits
With over 30 years of vast technical experience, we serve two distinct customer needs with the same high level of expertise:
Commercial & Trade Partners: We continue to provide comprehensive survey, design, manufacture, and installation services for major house builders and construction companies across the UK. Our expertise ensures smooth delivery on multi-million-pound projects.
DIY & Trade Kits (Nationwide Delivery/Install): Recognizing the demand for self-installation, we created our seamless kit service. We design to your supplied dimensions, provide detailed AutoCAD drawings for your approval, and then manufacture and deliver the entire system (including staircases, balconies, and balustrades) in a simple, bolt-together kit form. This makes professional, UK-made quality accessible to any competent builder or DIY enthusiast nationwide. Of course, Dio-Met installation remains available where required.
